The Tennessee Titans are heading to a new home stadium with a goal to open by 2026.
While the date isn’t guaranteed, everyone is hopeful of this opening date.
However, the Titans are giving everyone a sneak peek into their new stadium before construction begins.
So what will this new stadium look like, how many will it seat, and how much will it cost?

A closer look also shows how the stadium will have a dome, something the Chicago Bears new stadium will have as well.
However, the new dome look isn’t odd, as the stadium designers also created the designs for the Raiders’ stadium in Las Vegas.

While it seems the trend is heading towards teams having domed stadiums, some might not approve of this move.
Football Purists Love The Elements
When talking football to older NFL fans, they love the elements.
So many memorable games involve the elements.
Fans saw during Week 1 how the elements helped the Bears win over the San Francisco 49ers.
In Green Bay, it’s the frozen tundra of Lambeau Field that helps the Packers.
With a dome, fans won’t see epic games like older NFL fans remember growing up.
To those fans, the dome takes away the best part of football, the elements.
